Wish I knew how to post pictures. I've got some of the scale stuff I did 30+ years ago. Good work Hogger. I'll snoop around as see if I can find some of my books on weathering and dioramas, if I do they are yours. |

I haven't gotten into models but sort of gotten into garden tractors. I bought my 3rd Simplicity tractor last month that came with a snowthrower and we aren't even getting any snow. Rad |

There may be snow headed your way. We're about to get clobbered tomorrow & the storm will continue east from here. SW |

so ....the radio and TV and such are telling us we are under a weather watch - to set the stage , we have had a february with record setting highs [as recent as yesterday +58 last was +56 ] but we (those of us with brains) knew it would go back to normal , its winter and we get cold and snow this time of year no matter what our "false spring" [reference to the shootist-john wayne] might suggest , we will have winter well into spring in other parts of the country , we get snow in may and even june on a rare occassion , so ...im sure the dire predictions of 12" snowfall did inspire some to shop for a weeks worth of incarceration , i on the other hand expect to go to work both tomorrow and friday as well as my RSO class on saturday , i will believe the snow when i see it and am prepared to travel in a foot of snow that aint much , two feet - OK that's a problem , i will check in tomorrow as long as i have power - i will , not real worried this year , precedent is set and rain/ice would be a bigger problem by far , not predicted but always a possibility , |

Neat models. Nice work. Lotsa detail, not easy to do and make look nice. |

these are really neat - i wish i had the eyes to do such close detailed work these day , i no longer do and i strule with even the most common of efforts these days , a lot has changed in the last 10 years i hope to keep doing what i do for another 10 , i thank god for the advent of digital media that lets me magnify what i need related to my job otherwise id no longer be able to do it , im not ready to quit just yet , may happen in the future but not just yet , anyway - i cant see to detail let alone assemble these anymore , i miss that agility/ability and my eyesight |

Hogger try Harbor Freight for a air brush, I think mine cost about $12-14. Good unit, I used mine to paint my CETME when I built it. Now it's used to paint trigger guards and pic rail sections. If you have a compressor get a regulator and a filter. I set mine for 30-40 psi and the filter catches any moisture from the compressor. Still looking for those books on dioramas and weathering, I'll find them one day. Probably when the shop slows down. |

I'll keep that in mind. Hobby lobby has a CO2 air brush kit for $35 & they always have a 40% off coupon in the Wed paper here... I'm just too cheep to grab one so far - I poop away too much $ on other stuff somehow. SW |
